Roddick has no chance. He's only had one good major in his career, and for all your information, he's not playing great just cuz he won a tournament. In that tournament, the only tough opponents he faced were Andy Murray, who's known for being an on-and-off player, and Juan Carlos Ferrero, whose career's gone nowhere since he was ranked #1 in 2003. Andy Murray won't win it. He beat Federer, so what. Federer is not god. Nadal's beaten him 4 times out of 5 this year, so why isn't anybody talking about him. Andy Murray has bad days. Often. He'll make it to the fourth round, that's it. Nalbandian won't win, but he should come close. Safin will have too tough of a draw due to his low ranking this year. Having said that, I expect Baghdatis to impress many people. He's definitely shown that he can hang with the big dogs. He was a finalist at the Australian Open and a semi-finalist at Wimbledon. I expect him to make the finals. I also expect Nadal to make the finals. Nadal v. Baghdatis, Nadal wins in four sets.

Absolutely Federer can win the US Open! Look at the way Fed played at Wimbledon, even though he didn't win in the end, he definitely proved to everyone that he is still King and he's not surrendering his crown at all. Now he'll have to contend with guys like Djokovic and maybe Rafa could make a run if he's good and healthy, but I could say Roddick could sneak and heat up, but I think these years of overrelying on his serve is beating up his shoulder, so I don't think he'll be around for long. I think the US Open series will determine whose going to make a good run. I want him to win grandslam number 13 also, but if it happens it happens, if it doesn't I still love the Fed Express. Fed is just having one of those bad years, It was bound to happen. Tt's happened to all of the greatest players of the game before him, but he's still here and he's still fighting, that's really all we can ask for. GO FED!

I actually will pick the hometown favorite James Blake. He gave Agassi a run for his money last year. He is 3-0 against Nadal and just beat Roddick a little while ago. He was born in Yonkers, New York and is a very popular player. He has a chance as long as he doesn't play five set matches.

Federer is unstopable, but he may lose to certain players if they have an exceptional day and Roger is not on his. Chances for this to happen are 0.01%...But that could happen.
The players that I see could beat Roger are Safin, Naldandian, Murray, Roddick, Gasquet and Baghdatis, in that order.
